Herein, the effect of heating rate on Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) conversion was studied under supercritical condition. A continuous flow reactor was employed at a temperature of 600 °C and a pressure of 25 MPa. Three preheater lengths (1, 2, and 4 m) were employed along with a flow rate of 2 g/min to control the feedstock heating rate. The result shows that longer preheaters affect to the slower heating rate. The slowing of heating rate caused the decrease of carbon gasification efficiency (CGE). The preheater length affects the precipitation of phosphorus in the reactor wall during reactions.
